[Swprograms] Radio Australia: Melbourne Cup (Correction)

[John Figliozzi <jfiglio1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

CORRECTION:  Apologies for not initially taking into account this weekend's seasonal time shift.  Start time for these programs will be one hour earlier UTC.  That is, 0300 UTC.  Consequently, the notice should read as follows:

Radio Australia will preempt its regular programming beginning at 0300 UT Tuesday to provide live coverage of the running of the 2013 Melbourne Cup horse race.  RA will have special programming at 0300 and 0430, before and after the race.  It will join the national sports program Grandstand beginning at 0330.  The Melbourne Cup is Australia's greatest and most loved horse race and is run annually on the first Tuesday in November. It is known as "the Race that stops a Nation!"

Listeners can access the coverage via shortwave [9660, 12080, 15160, 15240, 15415, 15515, 17750, 21725; and 17840 after 0400 ] and the internet [http://www.abc.net.au/news/sport/] and [http://www.radioaustralia.net.au].
